Birthplace and date: Milan, Italy, Nov. 26, 1980

First job outside of real estate: This is it. Real Estate was my first choice and the first and only industry I got into.
First job in real estate or allied field: An investment analyst for a leading real estate investment company in Italy. I was involved in real estate acquisitions in Milan and Rome.
What do you do now and what are you planning for the future? I am an investment sales broker and manage a team of professionals focusing on the disposition of investment properties in New York. Right now, we have two offices, but I plan to open new ones in the future. It will be done in a considerate way and we'll pay extreme attention to training and to the quality of our teams. We'd rather be the best than the biggest.
Favorite book: The Bible. It is amazing how it shaped and continues to shape western culture.
Favorite movie: "Schindler's List"
Persons you admire most (outside of family): I admire people that work extremely hard but don't forget to spend time with their family and find a real balance in their life.
Key to success: Set for yourself short and medium term goals that are challenging but achievable at the same time and be very ambitious. Never forget to behave ethically and to be a good person. Your reputation is really your most important asset.
If you had to choose another vocation what would it be? I can only do what I am passionate about, and this is real estate.
